FestWorld Magazine Will Chronicle Music Fests, Lifestyle | hypebot

FestWorld Magazine, billed as the world’s first print magazine devoted exclusively to music festivals and music festival fans, is set to launch on March 9, 2019. The quarterly magazine will travel and food, fashion, art, and music, and will will be available at airports and music festivals globally.

Each issue of the magazine will be 136+ pages, with 38 pages of advertising, have a guaranteed circulation of 350,000, and will feature eight key editorial anchors: music festival reviews, travel guides, artist interviews, producer interviews, fashion & art, and food & essentials.FestWorld Magazine will retail for $5.99.

“It makes sense to have a magazine dedicated to the festival culture that has become such a part of so many lives,” said Kevin Lyman, founder of Warped Tour and FestWorld partner organization Full Energy, No Drugs (FEND). Kevin Lyman recently received Billboard‘s Humanitarian Award in November 2017 for his work with anti-opioid initiative FEND (“Full Energy, No Drugs”). The FEND app uses gamification to educate youth on the dangers of drugs.

“If you want to see humanity at its best, attend a music festival. A print magazine fits right into the festival ethos, which is rooted in travel, adventure, and new friendships,” said founder Scotty Moore. Moore, an entrepreneur with more than 20 years of print and digital media advertising experience, is the founder of FestPop.com, the first website dedicated to music festival discovery and providing a full-service travel booking platform.
